Explore, Learn, and Connect with Continuing Education

Have you ever wanted to speak Japanese? Plant a thriving garden? Train your dog? Aims Community College Continuing Education has you covered with a wide range of affordable classes for anyone in Northern Colorado. Courses are offered online and in Greeley, Loveland, Windsor, or Fort Lupton. Whether you want to start a new hobby, stay physically active or pick up a new skill, Aims Continuing Education has a class for you. 

“People enjoy continuing education classes because they can fulfill personal enrichment needs and desires,” said Aims Continuing Education Program Manager Rina Mitchell. “You can learn something new and meet new people.” 

Many classes are available for you to explore your creative side. Play in mediums like paint, ceramics, yarn, metal and wood. Learn how to use that digital camera to take professional-looking photos of your family and friends. Master the art of country swing or country line dancing with a partner, or meet someone new in class. Aims even has creative writing and poetry courses that can lead you back on track if you want to finish that novel. 

Fitness classes are another popular staple of continuing education programs. Staying active is the key to staying healthy and vibrant. Courses in Pickleball, Fun and Fit over 50, and Senior Yoga can get your body moving. 

Mitchell is excited about the variety of opportunities and options that Aims provides. “We can offer unique things that are outside the realm of what’s expected,” she said. These classes focus on new age and alternative beliefs. These courses can introduce you to the power of astrology, numerology, palmistry, reading tarot cards and more. 

Another new segment of classes is those in the area of personal wellness, with sessions focused on topics such as intermittent fasting and healthy digestion. You can also dig into the benefits of herbalism for complementary and alternative forms of medicine. “These are classes that you’re not going to get everywhere,” Mitchell said. 

Aims also provides learners with continuing education opportunities to upskill and keep up with the ever-changing workforce. This includes learning computer skills and software, obtaining leadership strategies, and taking small business classes. 

Continuing education classes are low-pressure and foster a relaxed environment. “Explore and come learn with people just like you,” Mitchell said. “Get out in the community, find a new passion and make new friends.”

Registration for Spring 2025 classes is now open. Visit aims.co/continuing-ed-courses to browse the array of options available to the entire community.
